NBC’s “Night Court” returns this Tuesday with a new judge, a viral video, and Abby Stone’s ever-present suspicion. In “Funnest Judge in the City,” a new magistrate arrives at the Manhattan courthouse, radiating perkiness and dispensing quirky pronouncements. But Abby’s finely tuned cynicism detects something off. Is this judge really as delightful as they appear, or is something more complicated lurking beneath the surface?
Meanwhile, Gurgs finds herself wrestling with the unexpected success of her courthouse welcome video. Starring the inimitable Roz, the video’s popularity spirals out of control, becoming something of an internet sensation. Gurgs, never one to embrace the spotlight, now has to manage a viral hit – a task perhaps even more challenging than wrangling the night court regulars.
“Night Court,” starring Melissa Rauch as Abby Stone and John Larroquette returning as the one and only Dan Fielding, continues to deliver its blend of eccentric characters and nighttime legal shenanigans. Tune in Tuesday, May 6th at 8:00 PM ET on NBC to see if Abby uncovers the truth about the new judge and if Gurgs can reclaim her video from the wilds of the internet.
